No seriously. I'm sorry. This song is really bad, but I just can't help myself. This is everything I strive to avoid in my life, but these two just draw me in every time and make me dance like their musical love slave. Ugh. I just... I can't even.
The song isn't the worst. Even these girls have had worse tracks, but catchy as it is, the song is just about loving getting wasted. That's it. BUT IT IS SO CATCHY! I'm really sorry, guys. I just had to. There were about four tracks this week that I wanted to pick, but this one won mainly because I can't beat my head against the wall enough to get it un-stuck.
Buy the track on iTunes. Or don't if you have good taste in music. I don't.
Welcome to Christmas! I'm not really as happy about it as the exclamation point would lead you to believe, but it's hard not to buy into the fake cheer of the holidays. It's time to hash out more celebrity X-mas related songs. Luckily, not all of them are your traditional tunes, some being downright anti-Christmas. As part of a month-long Top Five column of random crap I deem entertaining and relevant, I will be Let me get at you with some Un-Christmas Christmas songs.
5. Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence - FYI by Utada
Confession time: I LOVE Hikaru Utada's English albums. Back when I was a Weeaboo (Don't ask), I was all about some Utada, and she released her debut English album Exodus at the height of my Japan obsession. She released two English albums, this song from the second one. I placed it so high on the countdown mainly because it trolls you into thinking it's a Christmas song when it really isn't. She doesn't even mention the holidays at all. The only really seasonal part of the song is her saying "Jing-a-ling" a couple of times. Way to fool us, Utada. You win.
Edit: An Anon informed me she had to keep the title of the song she sampled for legal reasons. That still doesn't mean she isn't trolling you. I mean if she had to keep the title, logic dictates you should roll with the Christmas theme. She did not. Thus, troll.
(Warning: Lots of Hos under the cut.)
